Rehab

I'm in rehab
 Cuz I gotta get away from my drug
 It did me wrong 
 And took me down for way too long
 
 I loved it so much
 And still do
 But I gotta get away
 
 I was so addicted
 people could see my pain
 But I thought I was fine
 That everything would be all right
 
 My drug
 Abused me
 And used me
 And I just hoped it would change
 
 I thought you would protect me
 But you were the one that hurt me
 I thought you would keep me safe
 But you were the one killing me inside
 
 You should be illegal
 You made me lose my mind
 It's so hard to sleep
 When I know
 you're still walkin these streets
 
 Why did I take you for so long?
 Why did i think I was so strong? 
 To be able to take you
 It's messed up my life
 Cuz I wasted so much time on you
 
 Thats why your my drug
 I wanted you
 Even though you weren't good for me
 And I couldn't see it
 Cuz I was trapped
 In your love
 
 Now I need rehab
 To learn to live without you
 I need to learn to be happy again
 My body is callin for you
 My heart is screaming your name
 But you dont hear me
 Cuz I'm in rehab
 
 My body is shakin
 Cuz it's used to you
 I'm learning how to eat
 I'm learning how to sleep
 And just be myself 
 
 In rehab
 You learn to deal 
 With the pain
 And even though it hurts
 You see
 Youre not the only one in the rain
 
 So I know I can get through this
 Gotta pull myself up
 And kick this
 No more shots
 No more drugs
 Time to heal
 And finally be free

 You don't wanna lose my love
 But I don't wanna lose my life
 You're a bad habit
 That i need To break
 Please let me go
 Please stop trying
 I need to go

I Used To Dream About Our Wedding

I used to dream about our wedding
Our family
And just being together
Cuz I was so in love 
But it's fast how things change

Don't ever lie
And say that I never tried
I told you I loved you
I cared
I gave you my all
But it was never enough for you

Every time you ignored me
I felt like
Giving up
every time you said something harsh
It felt like
youre throwing bricks at my chest

Whenever your going through something hard
You take it out on me
Like I'm a punching bag
And I take it
Even though every punch
Goes right through my chest
That I can't breath 

but i still try to be nice
Cuz I don't wanna fight 
And you never apologized
For all the hurtful things said 
But that still wouldn't get all the knives
Out of my heart 
Cuz I would still have all the holes

I don't know what's worse
Fighting with you 
Or walking away
Cuz I know it will never will work
They both hurt
And give me so much pain

All you do is ignore me
I should be over you by now
Every time I think we're gonna make up
But will end up worse than before
It's like we're at war 

So you win
I can't do this anymore
I let you keep stabbing my heart
Until it couldn't bleed anymore 
And now I'm here falling apart
With a cut up heart

I can keep on crying 
But what for? 
My mind used to tell me to let go
But now my heart needs to move on too
so many holes
And I finally realized
That they can't be filled with you

My hearts been locked up
Since I fell for you
So it's time to be free
And throw away this key
And get rid of all the agony

All I ever wanted was you
But you never made it that easy
It's easier to be without you
Than keep fighting with you

Cuz I remember every hurtful word said
And I remember every tear drop shed
We can never go back
And we can't go forward
Unless we're alone
So I'll start walking 
Even though its cold and dark
I know in my heart it's the best thing 
And one day I'll be happy again

Worth It

My love for you feels so right
Cuz its feels so natural
So fresh and pure
I feel like all the wrong guys
Led me to you

I’m falling for you
And falling fast
But something is stopping me 
And its not you
Its my past
I’m so scared this won’t last

Maybe if you knew
My story
My life before you
You would understand

Cuz I walked through hell
Cuz no one would 
Treat me right
Broken promises
Left me broken hearted 

But I have to let it all go
I have to take a chance and hope
Cuz I want you to be the one
That wont hurt me
I want you to be the one
Forever in my arms
And be the one to show me 
My past was all worth it
Cuz it led me to you

Be My Doctor

I have cuts
Left in my heart
But it just gets deeper
Every time a day goes by
That I don't hear from you

i have scars
Left on my heart
I thought with time apart 
My heart would heal 

But it just makes it worse
Cuz my heart  Needs you 
It needs you like a flower 
Needs water
Your the one I need to live
I feel alone
Like a part of me is gone 

My hearts bleeding
My hearts in pain
And no doctors can save me
Cuz they all think I'm fine
Cuz they can't see the pain I feel

But You can save me
You be the doctor
And fix my heart
Stop the bleeding
And kiss my scars 

Then take me home
So I'm not alone
And stay
And tell me you love me
Like you used to
